So Sunday night as I left a car park I struggled to get 2nd gear, but managed to get it in the end then was fine all the way home. Same thing again when i left work Monday evening.
Driving to work I heard something flick up underneath the car but didn't think anything of it. Went to turn my car around after work and as I got to full lock, there was a loud clunk noise so moved it out of the road, then noticed there was oil where I was parked. Checked all the fluids and they were as they should be. Jacked it up and had a look around the gearbox, could see oil on it then noticed this big hole
Pretty sure thats not supposed to be there? Is there supposed to be anything connected or just piece of the casing?
Took a gamble and drove it home, all gear changes were fine and there were no noises, just more oil on the road when I got home, (max 10 min drive).
One thing I did notice was when I first pulled off again from work the car wanted to pull left but soon corrected itself after a few seconds.
So after that essay, where do I stand in terms of how long it will last, new gear box or repairable? Gutting thing is I was going to put the car up for sale this weekend
